I promise....I searched and did not find an answer. At least any that gave me a confident feeling.

I had my axles redrilled to the larger 4.5" pattern and the guy that did the job pulled the old bearings off and chucked them 'cause they were pretty shot. Problem is, obviously, I need a coupl'a bearings pressed back on but I need to know exactly which bearing to get. It sounds like there are at least two different sizes over the years?! I have a '63 Dart with, what was, the small bolt pattern. Can you knowledgeable A-body fellows give me some bearing numbers? Also, when I pulled the axles, only the bearing came off with them, so the seals are still in the axle?
 
As far as I know there are only 2 for this rear end. Earlier one is pressed on, the later is not. If you pulled the axles and the bearings came out with them, you need the earlier type ( correct for your car ).
